Cricket Association of Bengal President Sourav Ganguly has stated that the association is going to be fully Lodha compliant and is ready to give former players voting rights. However, the CAB will wait till the Supreme Court hearing slated for August 8 before changing its constitution.

While the BCCI have already decided the dates for the election, and the CoA, in no uncertain words, made it clear that it was imperative for the associations to follow the Lodha Committee recommendations. Cricket Association of Bengal was one of the major teams not to have implied to it so far but Ganguly has stated that his association is ready to comply with recommendations.

“We will give them voting rights if the Court does not change the verdict. After this, we will be fully Lodha compliant,” the former India captain told reporters after the SGM, reported Scroll.

The CAB will wait till the Supreme Court hearing slated for August 8 before changing its constitution, it was decided at their special general meeting in Kolkata. This was the only point that was left to be complied as per the constitution set by the Supreme Court as the process of filing the new electoral roll will then start by the state associations.

“After the amendment, we will appoint an electoral officer. We will then proceed with AGM after August 8. As of now, we will wait for the Court’s order,” Ganguly added.

Earlier in the meeting, the CAB, which is a part of 16 state units, had decided to “move on” and resolved to end the confrontation relating to adopting the new constitution set by the Lodha committee.
